MCB competition and grain tour

Yesterday I went by to help unbox and ready beers for the MCB competition next week.

There were homebrews from as far away as Texas and several Northern states. We ended up with a large chest freezer-come-fridge filled up. And yet more are on the way since a couple of guys drove to Atlanta to pickup a load from the clubs down there.

Tom at Rebel showed Lynn and I how the external thermostat controls the power to keep the freezer at higher temperatures so it's a 'fridge instead of freezer.

We also got a tour of the grains, Marris Otter, a honey malt and an Acidulated malt (tasted like it sounds). One of the most interesting ones was the Cherry smoked malt.

Very nice day!
